In this post, we will talk to you about 3 important industrial parts. Thermal Expansion Valves, Thermal Insulation and Steam Condenser. Each of these components has important functions. Join us to talk about each in detail.
Steam condenser
Steam condenser is a commonly used term for a water-cooled shell and tube heat exchanger installed to condense exhaust steam from a steam turbine in thermal power stations.The pressure within a steam condenser is held below the atmospheric pressure to enhance efficiency. more information
Thermal expansion valves
A thermal expansion valve or thermostatic expansion valve is a component in vapor-compression refrigeration and air conditioning systems that controls the amount of refrigerant released into the evaporator and is intended to regulate the superheat of the refrigerant that flows out of the evaporator to a steady value. When the load on the evaporator increases, it causes the liquid refrigerant to boil faster in the evaporator coil. Since the feeler bulb is installed on the suction line, therefore it is at the same temperature as the refrigerant at that point. Read more
Thermal Insulation
Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes and materials.
It is essential to know how heat is transferred in the environment and devices. Heat is transferred by convection, conduction, or radiation, or by a mixed process of all three. Heat continually moves from warmer to colder zones as it seeks a balance. Suppose an insulated container’s interior is colder than the outside air.
